The base path is defined in Rule 5.09(b)(1): The wording is important.

The rule is written to protect the fielder taking the throw. The throw must be able to be caught by the fielder.
Nov 4, 2010 · It is quite clear, the runner wins a tie. It’s very simple to evaluate if you think of the rules programmatically. 1) If the runner arrives BEFORE the runner he is out. This is the condition of being out. 2) If both the runner and the ball arrive at the same exact time then the condition of being out returns FALSE .
